RENEWABLE AND NON

RENEWABLE ENERGY

Oleh : Linda Faridah


What is Renewable Energy ??

 Renewable Energy is Those sources


of energy which are being produced
continuously in nature and will
never be exhausted

 Renewable Energy Resource - An


essentially exhaustible energy
resource on a human time scale
What is Non Renewable Energy ??

Non renewable Sources is Those


sources of energy which have
been produced in nature over a
very, very long time and cannot
be quickly replaced when
exhausted.
Renewable sources Energy || Solar Energy

Solar energy is the most readily available source of energy. It does not belong to anybody and is,
therefore, free. It is also the most important of the non-conventional sources of energy because it
is non-polluting and, therefore, helps in lessening the greenhouse effect.
Renewable sources Energy || Biomass

Biomass is a renewable energy


resource derived from the
carbonaceous waste of various
human and natural activities.

.
Renewable sources Energy || Hydro Energy

The energy in the flowing water can be used to produce electricity. Waves result from
the interaction of the wind with the surface of the sea and represent a transfer of energy
from the wind to the sea. Energy can be extracted from tides by creating a reservoir or
basin behind a barrage and then passing tidal waters through turbines in the barrage to
generate electricity.
Renewable sources Energy || Geothermal Energy

We live between two great sources of energy, the hot rocks beneath the surface of the earth and
the sun in the sky. Our ancestors knew the value of geothermal energy; they bathed and cooked
in hot springs. Today we have recognized that this resource has potential for much broader
application.
Renewable sources Energy || Wind Energy

Wind energy is the kinetic energy associated with the movement of atmospheric air. It has been used for
hundreds of years for sailing, grinding grain, and for irrigation. Wind energy systems convert this kinetic
energy to more useful forms of power. Wind energy systems for irrigation and milling have been in use
since ancient times and since the beginning of the 20th century it is being used to generate electric
power. Windmills for water pumping have been installed in many countries particularly in the rural areas.
Non-Renewable Energy || Coal

Coal is the most abundant fossil


fuel in the world. During the
formation of coal, carbonaceous
matter was first compressed into a
spongy material called "peat,"
which is about 90% water. As the
peat became more deeply buried,
the increased pressure and
temperature turned it into coal.
Non-Renewable Energy || OIL

Crude oil or liquid petroleum, is a


fossil fuel that is refined into many
different energy products (e.g.,
gasoline, diesel fuel, jet fuel, heating
oil). Oil forms underground in rock
such as shale, which is rich in
organic materials.
Non-Renewable Energy || Nuclear power

In most electric power plants, water is heated and converted into steam, which drives a
turbine-generator to produce electricity. Fossil-fueled power plants produce heat by burning
coal, oil, or natural gas. In a nuclear power plant, the fission of uranium atoms in the
reactor provides the heat to produce steam for generating electricity.
Non-Renewable Energy || Natural Gas

Natural gas production is often a by-product of


oil recovery, as the two commonly share
underground reservoirs. Natural gas is a
mixture of gases, the most common being
methane (CH4). It also contains some ethane
(C2H6), propane (C3H8), and butane (C4H10).
Natural gas is usually not contaminated with
sulfur and is therefore the cleanest burning
fossil fuel.
Conclusion
Energy sources are of two general types:
nonrenewable and renewable. Energy
sources are considered nonrenewable if
they cannot be replenished (made again) in
a short period of time. On the other hand,
renewable energy sources such as solar
and wind are replenished naturally
